ASICS has unveiled the second installment in its coveted RUNWALK business shoe series, a collaborative effort with the esteemed French luxury shoe brand, CORTHAY.

The shoe seamlessly blends the worlds of athletic performance and sartorial elegance. Crafted with premium French kid leather, the upper exudes a sense of understated luxury, while the incorporation of ASICS’ advanced technology ensures exceptional comfort and support. The result is a footwear masterpiece that effortlessly transitions from boardroom to after-hours.

CORTHAY’s signature aesthetic is evident in the shoe’s design, with a harmonious blend of textures and colors. The combination of white kid leather, grey velour accents, and a bold patent leather ASICS stripe creates a visually striking and sophisticated ensemble. Beneath the stylish exterior lies ASICS’ renowned RUNWALK LEAD platform, featuring GEL cushioning and AmpliFoam technology for unparalleled comfort and stability.

Launched on 27 July at select Japanese retailers, including Isetan Shinjuku and Hankyu Men’s Osaka, each pair is priced at 82,500JPY (~US$535) and available in limited quantities.
